✅ What We Like

  • Genuinely one of the oldest firms in the entire prop trading space, registered and operating in the UK since 2012
  • 500,000+ traders served across 140+ countries, a real scale signal most newer firms can't match
  • Accounts double every 10% profit milestone, up to a $2 million ceiling
  • Crypto, Bank Transfer, PayPal, and Riseworks all supported for payouts, broader than most competitors

❌ What Could Be Better

  • Profit split structure is genuinely confusing — it depends on account type, how fast you hit your target, and which stage you're in, with published splits ranging from 50% to 90% depending on exact conditions
  • Monthly payout cadence is among the slowest of any firm in this batch
  • Instant Funding accounts specifically pay only 50-60% of profit, well below the headline 90% figure advertised elsewhere on the site
  • Older, more traditional evaluation model with less flexibility than newer competitors offering same-day funding
  • Static drawdown is calculated against floating equity, not just closed-trade balance — open positions can trigger a breach before you'd expect one based on balance alone, a detail more than one independent reviewer flags as easy to misunderstand
  • Independent research into trader complaints found a recurring pattern of account terminations traders describe as unclearly justified, including disputes over news-trading restrictions and drawdown-calculation disagreements

Drawdown Type Static

The drawdown here is static — your loss limit is fixed from the starting balance and never moves up as you profit. If you start a $100K account with a 10% max drawdown, the floor stays at $90K no matter how high your equity climbs. This is the most forgiving model for traders who bank profits early, because winning never shrinks your room for error.

Trading Platforms

MetaTrader 4

The long-standing industry standard for forex. Huge EA library, familiar to almost every retail trader, still the platform most automated strategies are built for.

MetaTrader 5

MT4's successor — faster backtesting, more timeframes, depth-of-market, and native support for more asset classes. Most newer firms have standardised on it.

Payouts

Profit Split 50-75% base, up to 90%
Processing Time Monthly (slower than most competitors)
Fee Refundable No

Payout reliability matters more than any headline number — a generous split means nothing if withdrawals stall. Audacity Capital was processing withdrawals in Monthly (slower than most competitors) when we last verified this review. If you've withdrawn from this firm recently and your experience differs, use the report link at the bottom of this review.

Our Honest Verdict

The thirteen-year operating history is a real, substantive trust signal in an industry where most firms are two or three years old at most. But the profit split here needs careful, line-by-line reading before you buy — the same page can describe 50%, 75%, and 90% splits depending on exactly which product and timing bucket you fall into, and the monthly payout cycle will frustrate traders used to bi-weekly cash flow elsewhere.
